Provider
Barriers to implementation include the need for trained providers and concerns around how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Opioid Use Disorder (CBT-OUD) would affect the patient-provider relationship.
Barriers
To deliver CBT-OUD, providers require competency-based training, which is often limited in graduate programs and community clinics.
CBT-OUD is highly structured, which may raise concerns among providers that it could negatively impact the patient-provider relationship.
Facilitators
Opioid use treatment providers often readily see the value of opioid use disorder services in that setting and have high motivation to make an impact on the opioid overdose crisis which could facilitate adoption of CBT-OUD.
